("I've been told that my regular, conversational voice sounds a lot like Keri Russell, and that my singing imitations of the Disney princesses are spot-on...definitely can't complain about that!!")

My Voice Experience

"Voice acting makes me grin ear to ear before I even know I'm doing so! That's why I jumped into the voiceover field with both feet, extensively training with Cammie Winston, an excellent coach who's been successful in the industry for decades - and is still passionate about her work! I got my feet wet with Radio PSAs, Audiobook Narration for LibriVox, and Voice Acting for roles in various LibriVox Audio Dramas. Since then, professional voice work has been a challenge and a joy...and I never want to stop!

I'm constantly in awe of my coaches, the many gifted voice actors and acclaimed artists with whom I've been blessed to train, such as the awesomely talented Patrick Fraley, Eliza Jane Schneider, Richard Horvitz, David H. Lawrence, Dan O'Day, and Cammie Winston. I know I'll always be in training in some form or another, continuing to build and hone my skill set, so I can be as versatile and effective a voice actor as possible!"

Additional Skills

A definite "people person" and outdoor enthusiast, Tiffany finds inspiration and joy in the natural world, whether running, cycling, snowboarding, gardening, or simply playing outside with her kids. She is motivated daily by the people who inspire her to give, lead, create, and love beyond herself – a quality that lends a notable vibrancy to both her personal and professional life.

A published writer, poet, editor, and former educator (with a B.A. in English/Creative Writing from Westmont College), Tiffany approaches all her professional ventures with fervor - from her voice acting to her writing, from her varied experience in the production side of the publishing field to her years teaching 12th graders to understand and appreciate British Literature.

She is a vocalist experienced in both live performance and recording, is able to accompany herself on either guitar or piano, and has (just for fun) recorded several of her own versions of songs she loves...and even a very few of her own invention. For voiceover projects requiring it, she is more than happy to sing, either in or out of character, and has experience doing so in the areas of children's programming and children's iPad/tablet apps.
